Flow patterns (42-month cumulative)
Inbound (numbers acquired)
| Direct transfer from another RespOrg | 288,492.0 |
| Harvested from disconnect pool | 128,901.0 |
| First assigned from spare pool | 64,095.0 |
| Reactivated own disconnects | 9,489.0 |
Outbound (numbers lost)
| Direct transfer to another RespOrg | 88,092.0 |
| Standard disconnect aging process (3+ months in DISC) | 909 |
| Abbreviated disconnect period (1–2 months in DISC) | 52,529 |
| Released directly to spare pool | 172,440.0 |
Of the 53,438 disconnect episodes this RespOrg has sent through aging, 98% were abbreviated (1–2 snapshots in DISC status). That's a strong early-disconnector signal — this RespOrg routinely releases numbers before the full 3–4 month aging window. Worth checking daily for vanity drops.
